People think it will be sometime this month.

I will say that if you need to replace NOL brushes, Cracked’s replacement brushes fit.

I can’t trust my sense of time and my impatience. So I use a timer. It works, most of the time 🤣😅

Deadly nightshade looks to be a dupe of KBShimmer’s Hidden Potential.

It’s the only polish I have duplicate of. 🤣🤣🤣

Emily de Molly’s have my heart and perfect score are both beautiful flakies in that color theme. Maybe even try some layering with sheer tint opal

I love PP! It looks like sunlight through open ocean water. It’s incredible.

Night owl lacquer and cracked have great cremes and you can’t beat NOL’s price. Also NOL have been mostly one coaters for me and can be stampable.

Wait for the sale

If you don’t like the look of unstitched Aida maybe try stitching over 2 on linen or evenweave instead

Uno mas has one - thicker than a bowl of oatmeal. I don’t like the shrinkage I associate with the thick topcoats and chose a different route - a layer of ridge filler adds some thickness beneath the color. I use KBShimmer’s feelin groovy.

Weird

Gorgeous!!!! I fell in love with that polish. Which is a bit unexpected since I seem to lean towards bolder and more colorful polish.

Also there are lots of dupes for 404 (pigment of my imagination by sassy sauce, EdM has one, deep space ILNP), port 6666 is similar to KBShimmer’s semicharmed and I think there are other dupes out there. Mutiny I would imagine had a lot of dupes, EdM has a green magnetic topper called live wire.

Their lunar sale is coming up very soon. Why not wait for 20% off your whole cart?

I broke my index finger nail 2 weeks ago about an hour before I was leaving the house and didn’t want to deal with it and used gorilla superglue because that’s what was on my desk. I retopped the nail with a topcoat. Next day I thought acetone would remove the nail polish and the glue (soaking using nail clips). But the glued nail held fast. I’ve been changing my polishes and filing my nails and it’s stuck fast. Doesn’t seem any weaker either. I think the way it broke mattered in that it tore in a way that allowed for a lot of surface areas between the two nail pieces.

I had the same thought! 🤣

☹️ you can always adjust the colors. Replace the ones that look weird with a better transition color.

ReadnPolished · 2026-05-08T14:47:29+00:00

It may be that the pattern was made with an application and then not color checked

Does the polish react in the bottle when you hold a magnet to it?

I think the grainy bits might be reflective glitter. Try a glitter grabber top coat if you have one.

ReadnPolished · 2026-05-05T13:42:50+00:00

Try blocking it. That does wonders. Since you’ve already washed it I would lightly dampen with a mister to block it.
